Chapter 104: Tactical Lineup Double Restraint
Kobe Bryant against the aging white point guard Price, naturally there won't be much pressure!
Without pressing it, Bryant waited for Price from outside the three-point line!
When Price arrived, Bryant raised his arms and completely blocked Price......
Price glanced at Kobe, who was fifteen centimeters taller than him, and found that he seemed to have no other choice but to pass the ball!
Breakthrough?!
An old white point guard in his thirties breaks through an eighteen-year-old black young man, unless he puts a pair of wings on Price, in which case, he may have the kind of speed to surpass Kobe......
Projection?!
Not to mention the big difference in the bounce between the two, that is, the difference in height and arm span, it is destined that Price will definitely not be able to shoot in front of Kobe......
For a while, even Price himself gave birth to the feeling of heroic twilight!
Price at his peak has extremely good speed, and with the blocking and dismantling of his teammates, he can easily get offensive opportunities.
But not now, even if a teammate blocks and dismantles, his speed is difficult to drag down defenders, especially a young black man like Kobe Bryant!
Price in history did retire after playing this season with the Magic after another season.
……
Fortunately, under Adelman's Princeton system, Price didn't have to take on much responsibility.
With the help of teammate Joe Smith's pick-and-roll, Price struggled to get the ball into Miller's hands.
This is the first step in Princeton's tactical system, which is to find a center!
Miller holds the ball, and the Warriors players on the court immediately start to position in a 2-2-1 formation, which is the second step in Princeton's system, positioning!
Miller took Price and small forward Mullin to the side of the ball, which is the side where Miller holds the ball.
As for power forward Joe Smith and the madman, the two are on the off-ball side.
Then it's time to show Miller's value as a playmaker as a playmaker, and he's responsible for distributing the ball, whether it's to Price, Mullin, or Joe Smith or Mad on the off-ball side!
From this tactical feature, it can be seen that in addition to the special requirements for the position of center, the Princeton system does not have too high requirements for the remaining four, and does not require players to have strong singles ability!
That's why the Princeton system is also called the civilian tactical system!
It is precisely because of this tactical feature that the madman is dissatisfied, because in the case of Miller's dominance of the ball, his tactical position on the field is no different from others!
This made him, the leading star, extremely dissatisfied!
The drop in data is certain, this is fatal for a player's future, without strong data, how can you ask for a big contract with the team?!
……
After Miller held the ball, he may have deliberately disgusted the madman, and did not pass the ball to the madman, but to Mullin on the side with the ball!
Then Miller rushed towards the off-ball side at full speed, immediately attracting the defensive attention of O'Neal Jr. and Big Ben, and Mullin took the opportunity to rush to the elbow area with the ball, attracting Robinson's defensive attention!
Joe Smith, who was off the ball, immediately cut in and received a pass from Mullin!
Although Big Ben had chased the defense in time, it was still scored by Joe Smith.
Easily completed their tactical cooperation!
Adelman on the sidelines couldn't help but applaud, although this lineup still has a lot of drawbacks, but he firmly believes that with Miller, the golden center, he will be able to lead the Warriors to a proud record!
"What a seedling! Adelman really picked up the treasure this time! Carlisle couldn't help but praise.
"That's for sure, this is a product of West Lafayette, how can it be an inferior product, it must be a good seedling!" Stevens, who was on the side, couldn't help but pat Richard on the back of a pony......
……
In the first offensive round of both sides, both sides scored successfully!
However, Richard clearly felt that the Warriors' goal seemed easier, unlike the Trail Blazers' side who scored on the second offense.
But Richard still firmly believes that it will be their Trailblazers who will win this game in the end!
……
The game on the court is still going on, after Kobe Bryant went through the opening iron, the next offensive choice is much more cautious, he knows very well that if the twelve times agreed with Richard are used up, even if he has one more shot, Richard will definitely replace him without saying a word!
In order not to be replaced by Richard so early, in Kobe's next offensive round, even if it was the aging Price who defended him, he was always suppressing his desire to attack.
The ball is brought to the frontcourt, unless it is a good offensive opportunity, otherwise, Kobe Bryant will look for an opportunity to pass the ball to Rashid and Robinson, and even look for an opportunity to give the ball to O'Neal Jr. on the inside!
In this case, the advantages of the Trailblazers' tall lineup are vividly reflected!
In the face of the fire of the two anti-aircraft guns, Rashid and Robinson, the Warriors really couldn't find any good way to defend!
Rashid, in particular, obviously enjoyed this high-level play, turning over with one hand and making a big mid-range shot, the opening was outrageously accurate, it was already 4 of 6 shots, and he had already contributed eight points to score before the end of the first quarter!
And Robinson seems to have developed a more paranoid hobby for three-pointers since he had a deep communication with Curry Sr. in the past two months, and he has made five three-pointers in less than a quarter of game!
Although it only hit two of them, in terms of efficiency, it is quite good!
After O'Ben scored a goal in the opening game, in the middle of this section, Rashid missed the shot, and he caught the opportunity to make up for the dunk!
At the moment, O'Neal Jr. also got four points in the account.
Although Big Ben did not score, he had already recorded 4 rebounds and 1 block before the end of the first quarter, and his performance was very eye-catching.
Bryant, the backcourt who worries Richard the most, scored 5 points on 5 shots, including a mid-range shot and a three-pointer.
Although the scoring efficiency is not very high, Kobe Bryant also mixed in three assists!
is mainly Rashid and Robinson, the two artillerymen, who are completely catch-and-shoot, and don't have to worry too much about the defenders in front of them, so Kobe's assists are also mixed......
With two minutes to go before the end of the first quarter, Adelman called a timeout because he felt something was wrong!
After their tactical cooperation with a high success rate in the opening game, the young people on the Trail Blazers court seemed to have opened the door, and it was no longer so easy for the Warriors to open the back door.
This has affected the success rate of the Warriors' offensive rounds, and they scored six of the first ten offensive rounds in the opening game!
But in the next seven offensive rounds, they only scored two!
What makes Adelman feel even worse is that the Trail Blazers' positional defense counterattack is slowly eating away at the Warriors' old lineup with backcourt engines!
The Princeton system is arguably one of the slowest tactical systems, because the first thing they do when the ball is up front is to find a center, and that process takes time!
Moreover, Price was too slow for him to organize, even if he had some opportunities to play fast......
You can't let center Miller organize the team to play fast, that's unrealistic.
The Trailblazers' super high lineup, in fact, Adelman sees it very thoroughly, that is, he is afraid of the opponent's fast attack, a bunch of tall people, even if Rashid and Robinson are both very athletic big men, but there must still be a gap between their speed and the top small man in the backcourt!
Once the opponent finds an opportunity to play a fast attack, it will be difficult for the Trail Blazers to maintain a positional defensive formation!
What makes Adelman's teeth itch is that their warriors don't have the conditions to attack quickly at all!
Neither their tactics nor their aging point guards are in a position to play fast......
This is no longer a simple tactical restraint or lineup restraint, but a tactical lineup double restraint!
How Adelman is not in a hurry......
